I have a very good skin care regemin. I noticed when I started using Bare Minerals I began to see breakouts on my skin. I attributed it to several different envirnmental changes and stress and then I stopped using the product for a week. My skin problems almost cleared up immediately. I went back to the product after the week and I'm noticing breakouts again!!! I decided this morning that I will no longer use the product but I wanted to see if anyone else out there has had the same experience. As far as coverage and finish I love it but I don't want to sacrifice my clear skin. Let me know if any of you out there have had the same problem.
One more thing...All other things being constant 9(i.e. my skin care products) this was the only thing that was brought in and out of my routine!
Thanks!

STOP USING THAT MAKE UP!!! Let me tell you I am a woman of color and I brought that makeup because they said it was the best for your skin and all of this other foolishness! But I started to use it and my skin also had broken out with acne and I had clear skin to begin with. At first I thought it was only me but once I stopped using it and went back to covergirl my skin stopped with all of the bumps.
I would say honey use another product that doesnt make your skin upset.

Are you using a concealer at all? I know that I use BE, but I use my own concealer to start off with. Maybe, it might be that, if it is not a BE concealer. However, it may just be that you are sensitive to this particular makeup. Not every makeup and suitable for everyone, no matter what the adds say. I am sorry if it is upsetting your skin though. I love it and have been using it for over a year. How often do you clean your brushes? That could also be after of the makeup getting built up in the brushes. Other than that I don't know. I am sorry.

I've been using BE for years, and this has never happened to me. Sorry, it does sound like it's the BE that's making you break out. Too bad, it's great stuff. Are you familiar with the BEAddicts site on Delphi? Lots of great info there, maybe you could ask the question there--those ladies know everything.

I actually had the opposite experience- my skin has cleared alot since beginning with Bare Minerals. Maybe you are allergic?

Sorry, I've had just the opposite experience. I've been using BE since december and have only gotten 2 blemishes. If you're getting that kind of reaction though, stop using it.
